Suicide bomber kills Pakistani provincial law minister, 7 others
自殺式爆炸造成巴基斯坦官員遇難
It was supposed to be a celebration of the Muslim holiday of Eid instead it has become a time of mourning. A suicide bomber shot his way into the home of a provinical law minister in northwest Pakistan on Wednesday, as he greeted villagers. Israullah Gandapur was killed in the explosion along with seven others in a village near Dera Ismail Khan. More than 30 people were wounded. Sweets, strewn clothes and empty chairs, an overturned cot -- remnants of a party. Police now pick their way through the debris to find out who was responsible for the attack. But suspicion is likely to fall on the Taliban, who have targeted government officials. Gandapur joined the ruling provincial party led by the former cricket star Imran Khan, who is a strong proponent of peace talks with the Taliban. But several officials from Khan's party have been killed in attacks since the May election.
原本應該是穆斯林節日開齋節的慶祝時刻，卻演變為哀悼的時間。周三，一名自殺式爆炸者持槍闖入巴基斯坦西北部一名省級法律官員家中。當時這位官員正在問候村民。Israullah Gandapur和其他七人一起在Dera Ismail Khan附近這個村莊的爆炸中遇難。超過30人受傷。到處是散落的糖果，跌落的服裝和空空的椅子，傾覆的小屋——節日聚會后的景象。警方正在廢墟中尋找線索，查找襲擊責任人。但是嫌疑人可能是塔利班分子，他們曾經襲擊過政府官員。Gandapur加入昔日板球明星伊姆蘭·汗(Imran Khan)領導的“巴基斯坦公正運動黨”，此人強烈支持與塔利班進行和談。但是自五月份的選以來來自汗(Imran Khan)的黨派的幾名官員在襲擊中遇難。
U.S. Congress ends debt impasse
美國國會通過協議終止債務僵局
By a vote of 285 to 144 the U.S. House of Representatives approved a deal to end a political crisis that partially shut down the federal government, and brought the world's biggest economy to the edge of a debt default. Earlier the Senate passed the measure on a 81-18 vote President Barack Obama says the government will be back in business immediately.
美國眾議院以285:144的投票結果通過了一份協議，終止了一場政治危機。這場政治危機導致聯邦政府部分關閉，世界上最大的經濟體瀕臨債務違約的邊緣。早些時候，參議院以81:18的投票通過了該措施，奧巴馬總統表示，政府將立即開始重新運作。
SOUNDBITE: U.S. PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA SAYING: "Once this agreement arrives on my desk I will sign it immediately. We will begin reopening our government immediately, and we can begin to lift this cloud of uncertainty and unease from our businesses and the American people."
美國總統奧巴馬：“一旦該協議送到我的辦公桌，我將立即簽署。我們將立即開始重新開放政府，我們將開始撥開籠罩在企業和美國民眾心頭不確定和不安的迷霧。”
The deal offers only a temporary fix. It funds the government until January 15, and raises the debt ceiling until February 7,so Americans face the possibility of another government shutdown early next year. Obama said he plans to speak about a path ahead on fiscal issues Thursday.
該協議只提供了暫時的解決方法，為政府提供資金直至1月15日，將債務上限提升至2月7日，這樣，明年年初美國人有可能再次面臨政府關閉。奧巴馬表示，他準備在周四提出探討解決財政事宜的途徑。
